-Zach McCann of Orlando Magic Daily breaks down Dwight Howard's touches in Game Two. After dominating the first game, he really was a non-factor in the second one. As I said in my adjustments for tonight's game, Orlando has to find a way to keep him involved, whether it is in the pick and roll or feeding it to him in the post. Orlando has to find a way to establish him and make him a real threat rather than just a lingering threat. That also means, Howard has to be more active to get his position on the low block against Zydrunas Ilgauskas.
